Abstract
Adaptive control techniques with particular emphasis on the characteristics that make them suitable for application as synchronous machine stabilizers are discussed. The control algorithms described use least-squares identification with different control strategies. Microcomputer implementation of two algorithms and results of experimental tests are also described. Use of a varying forgetting factor with the identification routine and a self-searching control strategy is introduced to improve the overall flexibility of the controller when applied to varying operating conditions encountered in power systems.
